- Sensory neuron
- Motor neuron
- Interneuron
- All of the above
Hint:
The sensory neuron and motor neuron are connected with each other through interneurons.
The correct answer is: Sensory neuron
- Interneurons: As the name suggests, interneurons are the ones in between - they connect the spinal motor and sensory neurons.
- As well as transferring signals between sensory and motor neurons, interneurons can also communicate with each other, forming circuits of various complexity.
